Notes

Mastering Notes
-- Software used - Adobe Audition, Sound Forge, Wavelave, iZotope Ozone and Voxengo r8brain.
-- Downsampled from 24/96 to 16/44.1 using r8brain.
-- Right channel gain reduced by 1-1.5 decibels.
-- A number of small dropouts have been repaired and clicks removed.
-- The tape was paused between several tracks, crossfades have been put in.
-- d2t07 - Tape flip in "Drums" was crossfaded; no patch was used.
-- Seamless change between Discs 2 and 3.
-- d3t05 - No patch was applied for the cut at the end of "Good Lovin'".

Notes
-- d2t02 - At about 5:48 of "China Cat Sunflower" there is a tease of Donovan's "There Is A Mountain".
-- d3t05 - End of "Good Lovin'" is missing starting at 4:35.
-- All of the encore "Don't Ease Me In" is missing.
-- This was the first show the Dead played after John Lennon was murdered four days prior. According to accounts Jerry was in tears during "He's Gone" (d2t05).
-- All equipment used for this recording was on loan from Bob Menke.
-- These masters were in safe keeping with Barry Glassberg.

--- MOTB dedicates this release to the memory of John Lennon for his immeasurable gift to music ---
